Something like this?

% making a table like yours:
transcript = table(["the"; "discreet"; "forier"; "transform"; "of"],[0.99085; 0.89288; 0.92346; 0.87114; 0.74899], ...
    'VariableNames',{'Transcript' 'Confidence'})

transcript = 5×2 table
    Transcript     Confidence
    ___________    __________

    "the"           0.99085  
    "discreet"      0.89288  
    "forier"        0.92346  
    "transform"     0.87114  
    "of"            0.74899  

% make a row vector of the words in the first column:
result = sprintf('%s',transcript{:,1})

result = 'thediscreetforiertransformof'

% or maybe this is better:
result = sprintf('%s ',transcript{:,1});
result(end) = ''

result = 'the discreet forier transform of'

Better yet, just call join on the Transcript variable

transcript = table(["the"; "discreet"; "forier"; "transform"; "of"],[0.99085; 0.89288; 0.92346; 0.87114; 0.74899], ...
    'VariableNames',{'Transcript' 'Confidence'})

transcript = 5×2 table
    Transcript     Confidence
    ___________    __________

    "the"           0.99085  
    "discreet"      0.89288  
    "forier"        0.92346  
    "transform"     0.87114  
    "of"            0.74899  

join(transcript.Transcript)

ans = "the discreet forier transform of"
